Boot Failure
I am in the process of rebuilding this old computer and have the following problems. I need some help in getting pointed in the right direction. I hope I’ve given enough information.
On start up the computer goes through the first part of the boot and you can see all of the hardware detected.
==================================================================
Then when it gets to:
PM2: 4E
SDRAM at Bank # : 1
Searching for boot record from floppy “Not Found”
Searching for boot record from CD-ROM “Not Found”
Searching for boot record from SCSI “Not Found”
Boot Failure:
Insert Boot Diskette In A:
Press any Key When Ready
=====================================================================
I tried a Win 98 Boot up disk but it didn’t work
I tried an old NAV Rescue disk and I was able to scan the memory but could not scan the master Boot, Boot Records or Files. It then asked me to insert the Batch Files. I don’t have this disk.
I made a new NAV rescue disk from a Win 98se machine. When I tried it in the machine I was having problems with it said this disk was not made from this computer and could damage the files if you proceed.
I don’t know what to do at this point Can anyone help.
Thank you,
